Looking to invest in SFH and was wondering if anyone has had success with the BRRRR strategy in Sicklerville.

@Account Closed - I grew up in Sicklerville and I am a landlord in neighboring Washington Twp. The Sicklerville NJ has some strong potential for BRRR and I've both bought rentals and wholesaled BRRRs in the area. Feel free to PM me and we can connect. I'd love to talk about the area - I'm always open for a call.

As for the Sicklerville itself, anyone who is a native will tell you its a bit of a misnomer. Sicklerville splits two townships and townships are what matter for rentals. Sicklerville is 50% in Gloucester TWP and 50% in Winslow TWP. Here is the quick pros and cons on both.

Gloucester: 

Pros -  Good tenant pool, strong schools, most houses have public utilities, consider the more desirable area of Sicklerville by the local population

Cons - higher taxes, pulling permits takes the full ~21 days, higher home prices, overall thinner margins

Winslow:

Pros - Lower cost houses, rental friendly township, strong demand for rentals, slowly up & coming in certain neighborhoods, lower taxes, overall fatter margins

Cons - Lots of C and D neighborhoods and lackluster tenant pools, poor schools, the more east you get the more well/oil/septic you find, considered less desirable area of Sicklerville by the local population

By the numbers both GC and WT have similar rent rolls only off by $100 to $200 depending on the house type, therefore Winslow you will net more but have a slightly riskier house

Again this is just a general view, you'll want to look at each sub-division as there are massive swings within each twp (Ex: Brittany Woods compared to Cobblestone in GC)

    @Nana G. I'm under the impression BARRR (A for advertise) is universal.

    @Mike Bonadies I agree with your thoughts - higher cash flow areas are easier (less expensive) to get into and generally show less appreciation and are riskier for various reasons - crime, schools, etc. Always important to know the neighborhood, developments, and if you are fortunate enough the neighbors themselves. As far as BRRRR, not too many clients of mine are holding rentals, they see the quick buck in the flip and go that route. I'd make less income since I help them buy and sell but I do wish more would hold for long term wealth.
